List of Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small onion, diced
1 10-ounce package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 egg
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/8 teaspoon pepper
about 1/3 pound phyllo
1/2 cup butter or margarine, meltedRecipe
1. In 2-quart saucepan over medium heat, in hot oil, cook onion until tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat; stir in spinach, egg, cheese, and pepper.
2. With knife, cut phyllo lengthwise into 2-inch-wide strips. Place strips on waxed paper, then cover with slightly damp towel.
3. Brush top of one strip of phyllo with melted butter; place 1 teaspoonful spinach mixture at short end of strip.
4. Fold one corner of strip diagonally over filling so the short edge meets the long edge, forming right angle.
5. Continue folding over at right angle until you reach the end of the strip to form a triangular-shape package. Repeat with remaining phyllo strips and spinach filling.
6. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place packages, seam side down in 15 1/2 by 10 1/2-inch jelly roll pan; brush with butter. Bake triangles 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve hot. Makes 42 appetizers.
